Herridge said that identifying the American caller for surveillance purposes, in this case Flynn, "needs sign-off at the highest levels."
House Intelligence Committee chairman Devin Nunes (R-CA) said authorization would have been needed to unmask Flynn's name.
"If in fact the press reports are right, someone made the decision to deliberately listen to General Flynn's phone calls," said Nunes, calling it "unprecedented, unwarranted and flat-out wrong."

Get real....a ROGUE agent or AGENTS don’t need ANY sign-offs...they just DO IT!! Is she trying to say that TRUMP spied on Flynn??
I have no doubt the Obama admin launched this operation with the intention to snare Trump transition officials in it’s dragnet.
This was before Trump was sworn in. So Barry did it.
Time to make a few examples....
No one else here got that impression.
Why do you find it hard to believe someone appointed under obama wouldn’t give the go ahead?
They probably are rogue agents but I dont find it implausible at all.
Of course the Dems would want to be transparent about who ordered the tapping a retired General’s phone who was a private citizen at the time.
No. She is saying obozo spied on Flynn. These calls happened between November eighth and Inauguration Day. Read the article. This story has been headline for weeks now
Ask Obama who signed it.
Who ordered it is one part that will be easily determined. I would like to know what the codeword for this OP was.
Actually, if it was reported to Obama, he broke the law too.
There are two names missing from this story. Who is the judge that authorized the wire-tap? Second, who in the Attorney General’s office pursued or authorized the attempt to watch the General?
Both of these individuals will end up facing some tough questions as the cards get put down on the table. Maybe a decade ago...you could do this and walk away without anyone asking more questions. Today? It’s nearly impossible.
The judge involved had best go ahead and prepare retirement paperwork...or he/she will face some charges here.
Why would anyone need any sign off to identify someone who is either identified or identifies themselves in the recorded conversation on the phone that is up?
Freegards
Yet Comey presumably involved too—and kept on.
“sign off at the highest levels...”
Obama.
So does Obama skate on this since he was still president when this was ordered?
Lynch. She likely took this action at the request of VJ and her Helper at the same time she made it legal for Intel agencies to legally share intercepts of Americans with law enforcement (FBI). This illegal action by Lynch is (hopefully) countermanded now, however, the Lynch and her Mob are complicit and should be punished publicly - the more humiliation the better.
Unless you believe elements of the government killed Kennedy, there has not been this level of seditious behavior since the 1860's. There is definitely an attempt to destabilize the government. It is coming from domestic sources. The dem party, the media, the elites, and Hollywood are all complicit.
All this is going to do in the end is turn out as a witch hunt for the leakers in the intelligence community. They were stupid with this move as it gives the administration a reason to clean house.
Asking the FBI to investigate while still under Comey’s leadership? This sounds a lot like the Fox and the hen house.
